French Regime Is Fighting Saints and Its Own People
On 16 September, for example, a French appeals court upheld the removal of a statue of St Michael in Sables d'Olonne, where even the mayor is fighting for the statue.
A local referendum in March had shown that almost 95% of the votes were in favour of keeping the statue.
However, Baudouin Poupon, president of Touche pas à ma statue, believes that France's highest administrative court will rule against the mayor and the people.
There are many more lawsuits against Catholic monuments in the name of secularism - "laïcité" [= hatred against religion].
The fight is led by La Libre Pensée, a retired group of pensioners who spend their time in legal battles.
